Music on USB connected to Router won't connect

Hey, everyone!

I use a USB plugged into my router to play a few songs on my Sonos. I used to be able to connect this via Music Library Setup - Add Shared Music Folder - //192.168.0.1/volume9

*voume9 is just the name my usb takes when plugged into the router*

 

Now, when I try to do this (on my iPhone), I get this message “The computer 192.168.0.1 refused to let the Sonos Product connect to it.” I also tried it on my Mac and get “There is no shared folder ‘volume9’ on the computer ‘192.168.0.1’.”

 

I logged into my router and ‘volume9’ is still there, is not password protected, the sharing feature is enabled. I also removed the USB and reinstalled in on my router just to make sure that wasn’t the issue.

 

So, how do I fix this?

 

UPDADTE: I changed the wifi I was connected to on my phone to 2.4ghz and it found the USB!
